That's because the only way we can come to understand who we are and think through the critical decisions about our lives is through the self-examination that occurs in solitude."

Which means they spend virtually no time alone."
Well, this stood out to me because I relate to it a lot. To me it is saying that, well, mainly teenagers are never really alone with all of this technology we shove in our faces. All the phones, gaming systems, etc.]]> 2018-10-02 12:11:16 UTC https://padlet.com/sberryman4/263ep1qac0et/wish/288059315 https://padlet.com/sberryman4/263ep1qac0et/wish/288059352 "We find ourselves in solitude." This stood out to me because it simply explains that when someone is alone, they can fin what they want to do, what they are good at, what their hobbies are, and even what they want the accomplish in life. This contributes to Emily Smith's main idea because she is talking about how being alone is good for people, because they accomplish more.]]> 2018-10-02 12:11:23 UTC https://padlet.com/sberryman4/263ep1qac0et/wish/288059352 https://padlet.com/sberryman4/263ep1qac0et/wish/288059451 "Only when the mind is at rest can we actually hear ourselves think."
